Top Scholar

"Here is your room from now on," said He Xiaoyu, pushing open a door and flipping on the switch on the wall before leading Li Zedao inside.

The room was not large, containing only a single bed, a small desk, and a small wardrobe, nothing more. Yet, upon seeing this room, Li Zedao felt as if he had escaped from hell and returned to heaven. Such a tiny space was infinitely better than the place he had lived with his father before.

"Originally, this room was empty, just for storing some odds and ends, but a while ago, my cousin came to stay with me for a while, so I cleaned up the room for her. Now she's gone home." He Xiaoyu smiled, "So, Li Zedao, you're pretty lucky; if my cousin were still living here, you wouldn't have been able to move in... Oh, by the way, the blankets and pillows are in the closet."

"Thank you, Teacher He," Li Zedao glanced at He Xiaoyu, feeling warmth in his heart, and said with gratitude.

Huo Xiaoyu sighed to herself silently, patted Li Zedao's shoulder to comfort him, saying, "Don't worry so much, just settle down here and stay. If you really want to repay me, make the most of these one and a half months to study hard, and do well in the college entrance examination. If you can become a provincial top student, that would be even better; by then, the teacher can achieve both fame and fortune."

"Top Scholar?" Li Zedao pondered for a moment, then nodded solemnly, saying, "Teacher He, I will strive hard."

Huo Xiaoyu smiled, of course she didn't believe that Li Zedao could really become the top scholar, even the entire Meizhong High School might not be able to find someone who could become the college entrance examination champion, let alone the provincial top scholar throughout Fenghuang City.

Of course, Meizhong High School used to be extremely cool.

When Xiao Yu came to Meizhong High School, he heard about an extraordinary event. It was said that several years ago, a student at Meizhong High School achieved an incredible feat by scoring a perfect score on the college entrance examination.

It is evident that Li Zedao and that student who defies the heavens are two extremes; one is foolish to the point of disbelief, while the other is formidable to the point of disbelief.

 However, as a teacher, you will not and cannot attack a student's self-esteem in this situation. At the moment, he smiled and said, "Then work hard. The teacher believes you can do it..."

 After He Xiaoyu said something that she didn't even believe in herself, she felt guilty and wanted to live and die, so she quickly changed the subject and said, "Hurry up and tidy up your things, teacher, go take a shower." "

 As he said, He Xiaoyu patted Li Zedao on the shoulder twice, then turned around and returned to his room.

 Li Zedao glanced at the small room again, feeling warm in his heart, except for gratitude to He Xiaoyu.

 As He Xiaoyu said, there were quilts and pillows in the closet, but the color turned out to be pink and there was even a fragrance in it.

 "This should be left by Teacher He's cousin, right? "Li Zedao thought.

 At the moment, he said that he didn't dislike the quilt and pillow on the bed at all, and then folded the new clothes and put them in. At the same time, He Xiaoyu heard the sound of He Xiaoyu walking out of her room and entering the bathroom, and then quickly, the sound of rushing water sounded.

 "Teacher He is taking a shower..." So Li Zedao blushed inexplicably again, and continued to pack up while cursing at his beasts.

 After sitting down in a chair and opening the dilapidated schoolbag on the table, Li Zedao took out the 10,000 yuan, the crisp pieces of paper, and the jade with a phoenix on it. Inexplicably, his heart was a little sad again.

 After He Xiaoyu took a shower, he put on a relatively conservative nightdress, and wiped his wet hair with a towel as he walked out, but it gave people a feeling of hibiscus in the water.

 He Xiaoyu came out wrapped in a bath towel after taking a shower before, but it is obvious that Li Zedao lives here now. If she is doing that, what if Li Zedao's blood pressure rises and his nostrils stop bleeding? He Xiaoyu is very confident in his charm.

 At the moment, He Xiaoyu wiped his hair and came to the door of Li Zedao's room, but saw Li Zedao sitting there with his head down and his shoulders trembling slightly, he didn't know what he was thinking.

 "Bang bang..."

 He Xiaoyu frowned slightly and knocked on the door at the same time, and then said, "Li Zedao..."

 Li Zedao did not respond, he entered the world that belonged only to him again.

 "Li Zedao..." He Xiaoyu was a little helpless. He raised the decibel of his voice at the moment, and at the same time knocked hard on the door.

 Only then did Li Zedao react. He turned his head and glanced at He Xiaoyu. Seeing where He Xiaoyu was standing like a hibiscus, his face flushed again, and then he stood up a little embarrassedly: "Teacher He..."

 "Are you all right? "He Xiaoyu asked, she was a little worried, if Li Zedao continues like this, will he get depression someday?" She could see that Li Zedao had just cried.

 Li Zedao shook his head slightly and said softly: "It's okay... By the way, Teacher He, how much is the rent, I have to give it to you..."

 "At this time, you actually pay back the money? This idiot! "He Xiaoyu was speechless for a while, but after a short period of contact, she knew that this guy obviously had a little so-called self-esteem. It's not good to not want his money, and I'm afraid he will think more about it.

The current person said solemnly, "According to market prices, renting such a large room for a month would be about five hundred yuan, so let's collect one month's rent first."

He Xiaoyu extended her hand, white as jade, in front of Li Zedao, reaching out for money.

Li Zedao gave a faint smile and quickly pulled out five hundred yuan and handed it to He Xiaoyu.

"Alright, I've received the rent from you, the landlord, so now you can settle in comfortably, right?" He Xiaoyu asked.

Li Zedao smiled and nodded.

"By the way, it seems like you don't have a phone, don't you?" He Xiaoyu asked.

"No..."

"That's just right, I just bought a phone and got a small one as a gift, but it's an elderly phone with not many features, and it's not very useful to me. Plus, I'm a bit short on funds lately, how about I sell it to you for fifty yuan, according to the market price?"

"..."

Watching Li Zedao's expression of astonishment, He Xiaoyu giggled and said, "Just kidding, I'll lend you this phone for a while. Now that you have a phone, it's easier for me to contact you. Who knows where you'll run off to play when it's time to cook..." "If you refuse again, it would be too formal of me."

Li Zedao smiled awkwardly, knowing that this was a token of He Xiaoyu's thoughtfulness. If he had delayed any longer, it would have embarrassed He Xiaoyu. So he took it and said, "Thank you, Teacher He."

"Don't keep thanking me, go to sleep early. Good night, can't sleep... Count sheep, or you can recite English, but don't do it too loudly, or I'll kick you out and make you sleep in the hallway outside."

As he spoke, He Xiaoyu's expression turned fiercely angry, yet it was incredibly adorable. Then, her smile bloomed like a flower.

"Teacher He... good night..." Li Zedao hastened to say. The girlish demeanor of He Xiaoyu was so captivating that it stirred up the cold heart that Li Zedao thought he had long lost.

Xiao Yu was yawning and waving her hand, then turned around. But in the moment of turning, the face that originally showed signs of sleepiness had subtly flushed with a blush.

As He Xiaoyu returned to her room and after hearing the sound of the door closing, Li Zedao only then walked over and gently shut his own door, as if he were afraid of disturbing He Xiaoyu. He then sat down heavily on the chair, looking at the high-end phone in his hands that he considered quite luxurious, feeling an inexplicable warmth in his heart.

He carefully placed his phone on the table, then took out his textbooks from that worn-out backpack and began to study... For Teacher He's fame and fortune, he wanted to become the top student in the college entrance examination, which was his first goal, and the beginning of his step-by-step climb to the peak, becoming a legendary figure. Of course, all this is a story for later.

In a certain ward of Fenghuang City's First Hospital, Li Zonghan lay on the hospital bed, his once handsome face contorted in severe pain, as if he were enduring immense suffering... In fact, he truly was suffering greatly!

In the coffee shop, he was jolted by the shield, causing him to drop the cup of steaming hot coffee that the waiter had just handed him. The tragic incident resulted in the coffee spilling all over his pants, causing him to cry out in pain and nearly faint.

After being sent to the hospital, the doctor humorously said something that made Li Zonghan feel as if he had been struck by lightning: "Don't worry, young man, your testicles aren't cooked yet, and your sausage is still raw; there's still hope. Just apply some medicine, stay in the hospital for two days, and you'll be fine. Just remember to cool it down a bit when you play... You were too intense with that heat..."

Oh my god, what the hell are you playing at! If it wasn't for the pain almost killing me, I'd be so mad at this doctor that I'd want to fight him. Li Zonghan was about to jump up and fight the doctor.

As Li Zonghan endured the immense pain while also harboring a sinister curse towards He Xiaoyu, the door to the ward was suddenly pushed open, and several people walked in with expressions of indifference.

The one at the forefront was in his thirties, with a robust figure and a fierce appearance, marked by a scar on his face that looked extremely menacing.

Li Zonghan, upon seeing the person arrive, seemed to forget his pain instantly, and his face flushed with a trace of tension and fear. He cautiously greeted, "Hu... Hu Brother..."
